Pfalz DIIIa

[Pat Daily]

I just finally finished my Aerodromerc.com Pfalz DIIIa for electric rc. 41 inch span, silk and dope covering, planked fuselage with silk and dope over the balsa (very strong). Going to fly tomorrow.

That looks very good. What are you powering it with? What servo's etc. I would very much like to put a little Electric Bipe together but know almost nothing about EP planes.

Electric RC is really the way to go with smaller scale planes. Here is a link to my Pfalz at rcdiscussiongroups.com ---this site has lots of information about electrics. The Pfalz uses an AXI 2808 motor, HS 55 and GWS servos, FMA receiver, Castle Creations ESC and Lithiumpolymer batteries which have 16 times the power per gram as do Nicad batteries--very light in other words.

Today the Pfalz flew over the grassy fields of Remington, Va--not far from the battle of Kelly's Ford in the civil war. Here are a few shots.
